Al parecer, el cielo la hab�a estado escuchando todo el tiempo y ten�a una gran sorpresa preparada para ella...
Juanita quer�a ayudar pero no sab�a c�mo.
El cielo estaba tan despejado que casi pod�a tocarlo.
Pero un d�a, la mam� de Juanita se puso muy enferma y no pod�a trabajar en su telar.
Por la noche, cuando el sol se marchaba para abrir paso a la luna, Juanita corr�a escaleras arriba hacia el �tico para su rutina nocturna: contar estrellas.
Juanita quer�a ser de ayuda, y por eso siempre cocinaba para su familia su plato favorito: tortitas de ma�z.
Las mujeres ayudaban a sus familias tejiendo huipiles de seda, lana e hilo de algod�n, mientras los hombres trabajaban la tierra.
Para ella era el mejor lugar del mundo donde viv�a la gente m�s buena.
It appears the sky had been listening to her all the time and had a big surprise stored for her...
